1939Best.-Nr. 28831Detroit Michigan: Hudson Motor Car Co 1939. First Edition. Very Good. First Edition. 4-page folding brochure. 6 3/4 x 10 5/8 when completely folded. Minor wear at the extremities. Several stamps from dealers and/or collectors including a rather odd rocket ship stamp on the front cover. A beautiful piece of advertising. The Hudson Motor Car Company made Hudson and other branded automobiles in Detroit Michigan U.S. from 1909 to 1954. In 1954 Hudson merged with Nash-Kelvinator to form American Motors Corporation AMC. The Hudson name was continued through the 1957 model year after which it was discontinued. . The 1939 models joined other American cars in the use of a column-mounted gearshift lever. This freed front-seat passenger space and remained the industry standard through the 1960s when "bucket seats" came into vogue. Hudson became the first car manufacturer to use foam rubber in its seats. The Hudson Terraplane was dropped. For 1940 Hudson introduced coil spring independent front suspension aircraft-style shock absorbers mounted within the front springs and true center-point steering on all its models a major advance in performance among cars in this price range. The Super Six model was reintroduced as well. Despite all these changes Hudson's sales for 1940 were lower than in 1939 and the company lost money again. The advent of military contracts the following year brought relief." Wikipedia. Hudson Motor Car Co unknown books
